Love our weekends.

i have to start with friday. when i picked ethan up from school, he was so excited to tell me that they all got their own "6th grade buddy". he was a lucky one, and gets to have 2 buddies. he couldn't remember their names, but made sure i knew that "6th graders are HUGE!" haha. after we made it home, we let elliott get a nap in, and then we walked over to the school for the 100th birthday party. they had a bbq dinner, a clown with balloon animals, a book sale, root beer floats, and ethan's favorite part by far, the FIRE SLIDE! yes, this building is old enough that there is a slide that goes from the top to the bottom floor and you end up outside. it's no longer used as a fire escape, but the kids are rewarded for good grades with a ride down the slide. ethan went down it several times. it was definitely a great way to spend a friday evening with the boys. saturday morning, we went with jaymee and raigan to the farmer's market. love that place. neither one of us needed much, so afterward we decided to go to the absolute best place in billings to get breakfast. proven by the 30 minutes we waited for a table. : ) great friends, great kids, and great food, makes an awesome saturday morning. after breakfast, i took ethan to emma's 5th birthday party and elliott and i both came home and napped away the afternoon. unfortunately, i had to spend part of our evening grocery shopping. i really need to work harder on planning to go during the weekdays when no one else is shopping. it makes it so much more frustrating to know that i don't HAVE to go on the weekend, but yet there i was, pushing my way down the isles, excusing ourselves through people stopped to chat, and standing for several minutes waiting in the checkout line. you would think i have learned by now. today will be football on t.v. and chores. hope everyone had a great weekend.
